Dogs and Wine

Some of you will remember that I wrote earlier about the serving of dog in most Southeast Asian countries. I still have not tasted it yet, but I am leaving my options open. Gail says she will have to pass!
We learned by our regular cab driver in Vietnam recently some additional facts on the subject. He told us that there are several requirements for eating dog. First of all, the dog has to have yellow fur. You pet owners with dark haired dogs can relax a little now. Secondly, you always have to drink wine when you eat dog. He said no other drink is appropriate! It would probably be best if you had several glasses before the main course! We continue to be amazed at our cultural differences. We have sooo much to learn!
